A manuscript containing the earliest pieces of verse in Old Welsh, the Cambridge Juvencus (MS Ff.4.42), has just been digitised and added to the Cambridge Digital Library. The verses, known as the ‘Juvencus Nine’ and the ‘Juvencus Three’, were added in the late ninth century to the flyleaves and margins of an existing Latin text, a reworking of the four gospels in verse by the fourth-century poet Juvencus. Suzanne Paul has explained further on Cambridge University Library’s Special Collections Blog.
